Audi A3 Sportback (2004 - 2013) 1.4 TFSI (Start Stop) 5d Owner Review

It's my 2nd A3 and 3rd Audi over the years, the car is superb although could be better spec'd being a Sport model. Pokey little engine, low mileage, well maintained by the previous owner, top build quality and doing under 10k a year are the reasons for buying this car. Oh and that the Govt are hitting Diesels at the moment. I would recommend Audi after owning BMW's, Land Rover's and Japanese cars. The premium internal finish makes this car stand out even though it is almost 7 years old. Luggage isn't a problem either with a 370l boot capacity it easily swallowed up a week away for 4's bit and bobs! The 15mm lowered suspension over standard and 17" alloys give it a confident feel without a jarring ride; however the sports seats are great for short journey's but aren't that comforting over long distances. Overall I'd buy another well kept example with the newer tfsi engine, unless the Govt have a rethink on Diesels!
